Abstract:
|
We propose a linear regression model with Epsilon Skew Gamma (ES?) error term as a robust model for prediction with asymmetric innovations regression models. The ES? warrants providing the best fit line that minimize the sum squares of the error. It can deal with skewed, bimodal, and tailed behavior error distribution. We provide estimation for both regression and distribution parameters, using least squares and maximum likelihood methods for the simple and multiple linear regression models. We investigate some properties of the estimators obtained from the ES? linear regression model.
